Upgrade for a Intel Mb/Processor

My friend is running a Intel 300
and..

he wants me to upgrade it for him.
Instead of leaping out the door and builing a new system.
I wanna know if he could add a higher processor like a p3 or not..

Im not exactly sure what board he has but its a
Blue Genius Motherboard
and i beleive its at 66MHz bus speed

are those older P2 boards upgradable for a good higher processor?

etc..
need info. =)

See im not some AMD fanatic here
i could of ran out the door and said buy a Athlon Athlon Athlon!!!
but instead.. i wanna know if his board can handle another Intel,
if so, id be cheaper i think and less hassle then a new sys

thanks for info

if its just 66 MHz, then al you can plug in is Celeon 766 max. C800 is 100 MHz FSB. that too you will need a socket to clot convertor card.
and that wont help much i guess, since that motherboard wont have many of the latest things out there - 100/133 MHz FSB, UATA/66 or UATA/100 disk interface, USB etc.

so i guess it would make sense to get a newer mobo and a cpu, right?
